For many retirees in the Philippines, the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) pension is more than just money—it is the main source of income for food, medicines, and family bills. Knowing the pension schedule in advance helps retirees plan their budget without stress.

GSIS e-Crediting System

How Pension Amounts Are Calculated
The amount a pensioner receives is not the same for everyone. Government Service Insurance System calculates pensions based on:
- Length of Service – More years of government service mean higher pensions.
- Average Monthly Salary – Based on the last three years of service.
- Retirement Option – Some choose a lump sum for the first 5 years; others prefer monthly payouts immediately.
- Type of Pension – Retirement, disability, and survivorship pensions each follow a separate formula.
Because of these factors, pensions may range from ₱5,000 to over ₱100,000 per month, depending on rank, salary grade, and years of service.
